Africa holds 60% of the world’s uncultivated arable land, yet continues to face food security challenges. This paradox is driving innovation—and AgriTech companies are leading the solution. From precision agriculture and supply chain traceability to drone technology, climate-smart tools, and digital farmer platforms, Africa is leapfrogging traditional agriculture with smart, tech-driven solutions.
VCs, governments, NGOs, and digital platforms are aligning to drive transformational growth across food systems, supply chains, and sustainability efforts—making now the best time to invest in African AgriTech.
